Thursday's Sound Off

Obama has accomplished one thing since he’s been president - he’s created class warfare pitting the haves against the have nots. There’s nothing wrong with getting a good education, working hard, becoming successful and accumulating wealth.

When you look at all the mischief and damage done to this country in the last four years of Obama and six years of Democrat control in the Senate, how can anyone of good conscience support the Democrat Party or President Obama and still call themselves a loyal American?

BAFFLED

A big thank you to the Director of Public Works Thomas Broadbelt and his crew for the tireless dedication and work in cleaning up and keeping our roads safe with Hurricane Sandy. They worked 24/7, sacrificed their own personal time and safety for the protection of Upper Providence Township. Thank you.

AGM

To the person who said you can’t buy a potato peeler made in the USA because they all come from China, you can buy the potato peeler from Cutco. It is made in the U.S., it is guaranteed and it is $34 and it does hold up much better than the ones made in China. If you just look around, you can find good quality made in the U.S. All it takes is a little effort. Enjoy your new Cutco potato peeler.

To the person who has gay friends but does not think that gays should have children because children are sponges and they imitate what they see, since you know so much about this, why is it that a straight husband and wife can have a gay child? Wouldn’t that child imitate those parents? Wouldn’t that mean there would never be any gay people? Gays are born gay. It doesn’t happen later in their life. Accept it. They’re loved like any other children.

PATSY FROM PHOENIXVILLE

This is in reference to the friendly kitten around Rupert School with a phantom of the opera face. It is a stray and has two litter mates, one with a black patch under its eye the same color as Phantom. The other is black and gray with spots on the back and dark stripes on legs. The three need a home, getting very cold and they need a home to get warm.

This is in response to the person regarding the ongoing coverage of Hurricane Sandy through regular programming. Channel 6 Action News offered another channel (790) on Comcast and they had other channels for other providers where you could watch regular programming.

After this election there is something I would like to see and that’s housing for low income and disabled seniors. I’d like to know what anyone could do about that. Just thinking about it.

I’m just wondering where people get their information from. Someone said in 2011 the government gave out $1 trillion in Welfare and it comes out to $60,000 per household. According to my calculations, that’s around 16 to 18 people per household. Maybe we should invest more in schooling for the citizens of this country.

I wish I could find a big bonus in turning the clocks back and forward each year. There’s more bad than good in it. I vote it to be abandoned. Two other states don’t change the time. It even confuses the animals.

I’m looking for evergreens preferably blue spruce. If someone’s tree came down, I’d be glad to take them. Please call me at 610-334-8333.

THAT’S RECYCLING

It isn’t fair that we’re being forced into direct deposit, etc. I want my Social Security check in my mailbox and continue to receive my bills and pay my checks by mail. Why do they want to replace the post offices? There go jobs.

Thank God the election is over. On Monday I turned off my answering machine and refused to answer any calls out of area or no name. I received 13 calls on Monday soliciting calls for politics, some of them as many as four times. How many times a day do you have to be called by the same person before it’s considered harassment? One time and done should be all they’re allowed to call. Each liar wants to outdo the other one.

Obama cancelled the National Day of Prayer with the ruse of offending anybody. He’s already offended three million people including me.

SAD, SAD, SAD

I understand that there is a welcome club in Pottstown. How do I get in touch with them to join? And I am wondering if there is one in Boyertown also.

Where are all our friends in foreign countries that we help all the time? Haven’t heard from any of them. Poor flood victims. Another thing is, what happened to Obama’s big promises of helping the people? They can’t even get gas for their generators. How would he like being out with no electric in 20 degree weather?
